This is great. I had a busy weekend, but did make a roast on Friday, so plan on slicing up the end of the leftovers today into the freezer for lunch this week. There are lots of keto bits in my freezer! Monday, and I'm up 3 pounds. I went over calorie wise all three days...but not this much. I kept it keto Friday, but went…

Oh, I hear you! I had this moment the other day, wondering if I'll ever reach a point where I'm comfortable with my food/eating. I hope so, but I came to peace with the fact that food and I may never be 'peaceful', and that's okay. It's about finding some middle ground where we can coexist. :smile:

Okay, not trying to clog up the thread with my thoughts (I probably won't be on over the weekend so you you'll get a break from me :smiley:) but I'm so excited that I have to share somewhere where people understand. The struggle is real. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving I weighed in at 151.5 then blew it out over the long…

Christie, LOL! I love to eat! I guess a little too much, since I'm here. :smiley: OMG! Oopsies are awesome and versatile. Check out this amazing site - http://margeburkell.com/21-unexpected-ways-to-make-oopsie-rolls/ It gave me lots of ideas. I've used them now for buns, broiled like breadsticks with parm for dipping,…

M'Lou, awesome! Are you on the keto group on DietBet? If not, I'd welcome you there. :smile: Here's a link - https://www.dietbet.com/community/groups/45-dietbetter-with-keto if you want to join.

KnitorMiss - Love this! I also make little pizzas with fried oopsie rolls. Not quite crispy but freaking delicious!

Congrats on your loss! I feel great on keto...

I just posted the recipe for this but don't see it. Maybe lag? If it doesn't show up, I'll post it again. :smiley:

47lbs! Good for you! I'm loving Dietbet. Basically, you join a challenge and bet money that all goes into a general pot. The games seem to range from $20-100. You can do a 30 day game (they call them kickstarters) or a 6 month game (transformers). In a kickstarter, the challenge is to lose 4% of your body weight. A…

@4031isaiah I think avocado mayo is delicious! But other people think it tastes too strong. I buy Chosen Foods avocado oil at Costco because it can be expensive at specialty stores. Here's a good link for the process...http://www.weedemandreap.com/homemade-mayonnaise/ Personally, I think it works better if you put in the…

I weigh every day...except Sat, Sun, and Monday. :smiley: I have an Aria scale and use Fitbit which links here so it automatically logs it into my reports.

@pwrfl1 Basically, you eat eggs and fat. :) You can have some cheese, but I usually save that until the end...day 3 or 4. Four is how many days I did last time. Here's more info on it - http://www.ibreatheimhungry.com/2014/07/egg-fast.html. I like eggs and it does seem to get me back on track quick after missteps. Sitting…

Hi Maeve! I just posted that I'm doing an egg fast right now - I've done it a few times and it seems to help. I've started doing them when I'm retaining water (a carb 'mishap', heh, or hormones) and I do tend to get a big 'whoosh' in the first day or two. I fat fasted for a day but found it pretty restrictive. That may be…

Just dropped 5lbs of water overnight - the miracle of Keto! It's 5 of 6lbs I gained over Thanksgiving so I'm pretty pleased. I'm in a DietBet and still need to lose 1.5lbs in the next 7 days. I'm planning to egg fast this week to get there. Anyone here ever egg fasted? If so, how was it? AND have a great day today - treat…

That is terrific Sue! Great work!

Thanks for the tip on this. I'm going to check this out. Little gadgets keep me going...have you have seen that app Zombies Run? It's great fun.

Thanks PWR! Having a strong day today with food - and that feels great! When faced with temptations I have to remember how good I feel when I stay on plan. Off to bowling to burn a few calories...and stay on plan!

Hi everyone! Christie, thanks for starting this. Sometimes I need to check in...well, all the time really. Elize7, I agree with you. I need to find some peace with food. I was obese for a large portion of my life, I've lost almost 90 lbs and can see my goal, 20lbs away. Instead, I just keep gaining and losing the same 10…

^^ This - make sure that you're getting enough fat. If your protein is too high it can convert to glycogen.

Howdy! I've been on keto, off keto, low-carb, keto, off keto...you know the drill. Nw back on since the beginning of September (but have been loose a few times). Down about 10 lbs...anyone should feel free to add me. I'm also on DietBet if you want to connect there. It helps to watch my feed and see how other people are…

I just jumped back on the keto wagon Tuesday...it's so easy to fall off. Simple carbs are everywhere! Feel free to add me if you'd like.

Kateraichu, I just found Dietbet a few weeks ago and decided to try it. I did two 30 day challenges (which I'm for sure going to win, Yay me!) and just joined a 6 month 'Transformer' bet. It's interesting. I do think about it when I'm feeling a little tempted 'cause I'm cheap and don't want to lose the money I put down.…

I just tried it...meaning joined a couple of games. So far it's made me think twice a couple of times before I put something in my mouth because I joined one of the long games and bet up front so it's a chunk of $. Feel free to friend me here or there if you want!

Week 1 - 166.3 Week 2 - 163.8 -2.5 Week 3 - 163.9 Well, at least it's not skyrocketing up! Runningsahm, heck yeah! Solid loss. Do that 10 times...

Love this one! I'm big on protein and veggies.

Thanks! You too. You know, I never have...but have been thinking about it. I just started asking around for recommendations because this is getting a little ridiculous! I have a new found empathy for people who have chronic pain. I looked at the calendar and realized that this has been going on for a month now. What…

Week 1 - 166.3 Week 2 - 163.8 -2.5 Yay! I had a big jump a few weeks back (like, 9 lbs in a week!) so this is nice to see it coming off fairly easily. The strength training challenge this week is proving difficult - well, impossible. I had a muscle spasm in my neck a few weeks ago that has now spread through my body,…

Alright - good call! This is something I've been wanting to do. I need to figure it out. Thanks Amanda!

Amanda - Is that a picture of you from the Color Run? I did that this year for the first time. What a blast!
